Blushing Ball?

i got was at the KS classifieds just a moment a go and saw this add for what they called "OUTRAGEOUS BLUSHING BALL PYTHON" and i dont see anything special. is this rare or is this guy just tryin to make an extra 150.00 by labeling it as so.because if i were to get you a pic of monty with a good digital camera you would see he is waaayyy more blushed then this bp. is this in fact a blushing ball? or just some miss labeling? im just wondering if monty is anything special, or if this guy is a liar. even on my crappy pics you can see just a bit of his blushing but barely any. well anyhoo whats the deal with this ball, normal or blushing?
also monty's head is drastically burgandy it is very light. i just thought he was a normal and im still pretty sure he is one. any opinions welcome. im so confused, lol.

and is this something that develops with time because when i got monty he wasnt at all blushed but with every shed his spots grow.

i SEE ALOT OF PEOPLE THAT TRY AND LABEL NORMAL BALLS AS SOMETHING THAT THERE NOT. WITH THE HOLE MORPH CRAZE IN BALL PYTHONS ITS NO WONDER PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO PASS OF NORMALS AS DIFFERENT TYPES. iT MIGHT BE BLUSHING BUT TO ME IT LOOKS NORMAL. NICK

This is a very unfortunate trend. Normal Royals are being marked up for being 'peach' or 'orange'. This is all NORMAL phasing, not 'morphing'. It is like the ATB's. You can put 2 garden phases together and get some halloweens, some oranges and some gardens. Genetics are an odd thing, but different phases are still normal. Don't fall for it or into it. Let's keep the hobby where it needs to be: for the animals, not the money.

Yeah, according to the ks classifieds, I have one melanistic/labyrinth/granite/mohave BP, and one high gold/reduced pattern/reduced black/pastel (looking)/blushing BP. LOL. My girls are without a doubt the best looking normals ever, but they are *normal!*
